If you're looking for not one but three immersive, intricate, all-consuming fantasy worlds to hibernate in as the weather grows cold, Islington has left the doors wide open.\"-- \" -Elle\"\r\n\r\nReview Quotes:\r\n\"To sum it up, The Strength of the Few is better in pretty much every way than its predecessor. The Will of the Many was a good book--a really, really good book--but The Strength of the Few is a great one.\"-- \"- Grimdark Magazine\"\r\n\r\nReview Quotes:\r\n* \"This sequel is another striking achievement that cements Islington as one of the genre's most compelling voices.\"-- \"- Library Journal, Starred Review\"\r\n\r\nReview Quotes:\r\n* \"Evocative prose and nuanced ruminations on the nature of power and sacrifice enhance Islington's complex multiverse worldbuilding. Readers will be on the edge of their seats--and impatient to learn how Islington pulls off the saga's conclusion.\"-- \"- Publishers Weekly, starred review\"\r\n\r\nReview Quotes:\r\n\"Islington rewards patient readers with a compelling story, a cast of complex and diverse characters, and a glimpse into how far a good man can go before he's lost.\"-- \" -Kirkus\"\r\n\r\nReview Quotes:\r\n\"This book, this true monster of monsters, resists every attempt at tidy explanation. It's vast, it's brilliant and it's utterly overwhelming -- yet somehow, against all odds, its immense scope and intricate plotting still cohere into one breathtaking masterpiece. Five Stars aren't enough.\"-- \"- Winter Is Coming\"\r\n\r\nPublisher Marketing:\r\nINSTANT #1 New York Times bestseller!\r\n\r\nThis USA TODAY and international bestseller features a reversible book cover that matches the original hardcover art design, and beautifully designed endpapers.\r\nThis highly anticipated sequel to The Will of the Many--one of 2023's most lauded and bestselling fantasy novels--follows Vis as he grapples with a dangerous secret that could unravel history across alternate dimensions.\r\nBook two of the Hierarchy quartet.\r\nOMNE TRIUM PERFECTUM\r\nThe Hierarchy still call me Vis Telimus. Still hail me as Catenicus. They still, as one, believe they know who I am.\r\nBut with all that has happened--with what I fear is coming--I am not sure it matters anymore.\r\nI am no longer one. I won the Iudicium, and lost everything--and now, impossibly, the ancient device beyond the Labyrinth has replicated me across three separate worlds. A different version of myself in each of Obiteum, Luceum, and Res. Three different bodies, three different lives. I have to hide; fight; play politics. I have to train; trust; lie. I have to kill; heal; prove myself again, and again, and again.\r\nI am loved, and hated, and entirely alone.\r\nAbove all, though, I need to find answers before it's too late. To understand the nature of what has happened to me, and why.\r\nI need to find a way to stop the coming Cataclysm, because if all I have learned is true, I may be the only one who can.\r\n\r\nContributor Bio:Islington, James\r\nJames Islington is the bestselling author of The Will of the Many (the first novel in the Hierarchy series), as well as the Licanius Trilogy (beginning with The Shadow of What Was Lost).
